You could fire you rifle, and if I dropped a cannon ball at the exact same moment, they would both hit the ground at the same time....
You sir are correct,I stand corrected.
Is this why the .22-250 shoots flatter than a .223? Using the same bullet, the .223 in one second will go 3100 feet, and the .22-250 will go 3500 feet. The drop of the bullets will be the same after one second, but the .22-250 will have gone an extra 100+ yards.
